Your game account isn't on your PS3. You can play the game on any PS3 as long as you use the same PSN ID.(someone please correct me if I"m wrong here)
It's tied to PSN ID not your console ID. When I replaced my HDD I just had to reinstall and sign in again.
ok awesome. just making sure. thanks a bunch. ^^
In other words, make a new PS3 (machine) user account but sign in with your PSN account that has FF14 registered.
You might have to "deactivate" the old PS3 to transfer your licences for DLC, PSN bought games and possibly the licence key for FFXIV.
Check your regions Playstation website support guide for info.
I had to deactive my PS3 earlier this year before sending it back to the shop, basically it desync's your account from the PS3's hardware ID (as you can register 2 PS3s per PSN account) so you can keep bought content.
Re-sign in with your PSN ID on the new PS3 and make it your primary console - sorted.
Again double check on the PS website for instructions.
Unless you have uploaded the Character Save Data to the PSN+ Storage, you will need to manually copy it or you will have to reset all your UI, gearsets, and Bars.
